What was Be saying? She seemed to hint that Linny’s death was closely rted to Shannon and


    Bethany.


    Justin stared at Be’s discolored, seething face, his hand slipping around her waist.


    Feeling her shudder, Justin pressed his palm against her skin, his warmth offering assurance and


    encouragement.


    He stood down, not because he did not want to risk his reputation.


    Justin understood that Be needed to stand up to Shannon and


    Bethany to ovee her resentment and trauma.


    Shannon’s and Bethany’s faces contorted with horror.


    They tried to control the narrative by bringing the press into it. Yet now, they might be shooting


    themselves in the foot.


    “What are you saying, Ms. Thompson? Don’t tell me you think we killed Linny,” Shannon pressed with


    bulging eyes.


    “Did I say you killed her? I said nothing of that sort.”


    Be shrugged, her expression taunting. “I said nothing. Why were you in a hurry to deny everything?


    Did you have something to do with Linny’s death?”.


    The journalists exchanged nces before putting Shannon and Bethany in the spotlight.


    Shannon red at Be, wishing she could bite her head off.


    Goddamnit! The bitch set her up again.


    “Just because you are members of the Salvador family, you boss around, yell, and torture the domestic


    help. Don’t try to y the good guys now. Your presence is a nuisance to the living and the dead. I


    don’t see a problem telling you karma would get to you one day.” A storm of emotions was brewing in


    Be’s eyes.


    Justin looked at Be in awe.


    His woman sure was intelligent and witty.

    Despite knowing that Shannon and Bethany were responsible for Linny’s death, they had no proof.


    using Shannon directly of murder could backfire, leaving Be vulnerable to a nderwsuit


    For this reason, Be chose to keep her speech vague.


    Be’s words were sure to hit a nerve with Shannon and spark a media firestorm. With a well-ced


    strike, Be got even with


    Shannon and Bethany and threw a wrench in their ns.


    Shannon hated Be’s guts, but more so herself, for getting caught Be’s wordy.


    “That’s a big usation to make, Be!”


    Bethany freaked out, knowing the image she worked so hard to build was gone. Sheshed out, “I


    know you don’t see eye-to-eye with me and my mother, but that doesn’t give you the right to make false


    ims about us. That’s nder. I can sue you.”


    Her voice trailed off.


    Justin’s steely gaze sent chills down Bethany’s spine. She felt like an invisible knife was held against


    her throat.


    “I’m only giving you facts. I have insights because I lived with you at your family home for three years.”


    Be grimaced sternly.


    The crowd was shocked.


    What was that supposed to mean?


    It made no sense that the heiress of the Thompsons lived in the


    Salvadors’ residence for three years.


    The press, Shannon, Bethany, Justin, and the Thompson brothers behind Be were stunned.


    “Be, you-”


    Be’s statement stopped Justin from saying anything further. “I know better than anyone the shitty


    things you did throughout the years because I’m Justin’s ex-wife. I was once a member of the Salvador


    family.”
